Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a call record synchronization method, a cloud platform, and a terminal. The method includes: detecting, by a first terminal, an input operation for requesting to display a call record; and after the first terminal detects the input operation, displaying, by the first terminal, a merged call record, where the merged call record is a call record obtained after merging of a call record of the first terminal and a call record of a second terminal, and the merged call record includes a device identifier of the first terminal and/or a device identifier of the second terminal. According to the embodiments of the present invention, a user can use the merged call record to identify call answering or making statuses on a plurality of terminals, without querying a plurality of call records. This improves user experience.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A call record synchronization method, comprising:
 receiving, by a first terminal, a first incoming call associated with a first phone number; 
 receiving, by a second terminal, a second incoming call associated with the first phone number while the first terminal is providing a first incoming call prompt of the first incoming call, wherein the first terminal and the second terminal share a same phone number; 
 receiving, by the first terminal, a first input for answering the first incoming call; 
 sending, by the first terminal, a call answering notification indicating an answering of the first incoming call by the first terminal; 
 displaying, by the second terminal, the call answering notification, wherein the call answering notification is displayed as one of a lock screen notification, a notification bar notification and a SMS message; 
 receiving, by the second terminal, a second input for displaying a first call record; and 
 displaying, by the second terminal, the first call record in response to the second input, wherein the first call record comprises a first incoming call entry associated with the first incoming call, and wherein the first incoming call entry comprises a first device identifier of the first terminal. 
 
     
     
       2. The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first call record further comprises a missed call entry associated with the second incoming call. 
     
     
       3. The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first terminal is communicatively coupled to the second terminal via a Bluetooth connection. 
     
     
       4. The method of  claim 2 , wherein the missed call entry comprises a second device identifier of the second terminal. 
     
     
       5. The method of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 receiving, by the second terminal from the first terminal and via the Bluetooth connection, a first piece of call log information of the first terminal; and 
 generating, by the second terminal, the first call record based on the first piece of call log information. 
 
     
     
       6. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 receiving, by the second terminal, a second piece of call log information of the first terminal from a cloud server; and 
 generating, by the second terminal, the first call record based on the second piece of call log information of the first terminal. 
 
     
     
       7. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising sending, by the first terminal to the second terminal, a call answering notification indicating an answering of the first incoming call by the first terminal. 
     
     
       8. The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first call record further comprises an outgoing call entry associated with an outing call performed by the first terminal. 
     
     
       9. The method of  claim 8 , wherein the outgoing call entry comprises the first device identifier of the first terminal. 
     
     
       10. The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first call record further comprises incoming call entries and outgoing call entries of the second terminal. 
     
     
       11. A system, comprising:
 a first terminal configured to:
 receive a first incoming call associated with a first phone number; 
 receive a first input for answering the first incoming call; and 
 send a call answering notification indicating an answering of the first incoming call by the first terminal; and 
 
 a second terminal communicatively coupled to the first terminal and configured to:
 receive a second incoming call associated with the first phone number while the first terminal is providing a first incoming call prompt of the first incoming call, wherein the first terminal and the second terminal share a same phone number; 
 display the call answering notification, wherein the call answering notification is displayed as one of a lock screen notification, a notification bar notification and a SMS message; 
 receive a second input for displaying a first call record; and 
 display the first call record in response to the second input, wherein the first call record comprises a first incoming call entry associated with the first incoming call, and the first incoming call entry comprises a first device identifier of the first terminal. 
 
 
     
     
       12. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the first terminal is communicatively coupled to the second terminal via a Bluetooth connection. 
     
     
       13. The system of  claim 12 , wherein the second terminal is further configured to:
 receive a first piece of call log information of the first terminal from the first terminal via the Bluetooth connection; and 
 generate the first call record based on the first piece of call log information. 
 
     
     
       14. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the first call record further comprises a missed call entry associated with the second incoming call. 
     
     
       15. The system of  claim 14 , wherein the missed call entry comprises a second device identifier of the second terminal. 
     
     
       16. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the second terminal is further configured to:
 receive a second piece of call log information of the first terminal from a cloud server; and 
 generate the first call record based on the second piece of call log information of the first terminal. 
 
     
     
       17. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the first terminal is further configured to send, to the second terminal, a call answering notification indicating an answering of the first incoming call by the first terminal. 
     
     
       18. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the first call record further comprises an outgoing call entry associated with an outgoing call performed by the first terminal. 
     
     
       19. The system of  claim 18 , wherein the outgoing call entry comprises the first device identifier of the first terminal. 
     
     
       20. The system of  claim 11 , wherein the first call record further comprises incoming call entries and outgoing call entries of the second terminal.
